How deplorable is this? And next to a church no less

When you look at this utility pole ….

 you want to take a closer look.

This is NM #41 on Kingston Place along side the Cazenovia Park Baptist Church.

  1. Taking an even more closer look, the sidewalk is newer which means it “worked around” this kind of shottiness. :(

  2. I’m not sure how it being next to a church makes it more or less deplorable than if it were next to a home or business, but, in any event, your beef appears as if should be with Time Warner/Adelphia. The only thing attached to that old partial pole is the cable televison equipment. It appears as if National Grid/NiMo installed a new utility pole (Verizon and Time Warner “rent” space on National Grid’s poles.) All electric service and telephone service appears to have been transferred to the new pole. Cable service has not been. I suspect National Grid notified Time Warner (or Adelphia) and has been waiting for them to come out and attach to the new pole. When that is done, the old pole segment can be removed.

    As to the new sidewalk, I’m not sure what the City’s contractor could have done under the circumstances.

  3. Thank you for a very much for your enlightening comment. I see a streetlight on a NiMo pole, who knew it is a problem that should be taken up with Time Warner.
